That's a new one for me. But I'm sure you have a reason to believe that so fair enough.

I actually hadn't thought of Nixon, I just meant in general corrupt politicians existed before Trump and corrupt policies such as slavery and segregation go all the way back to the country's beginning.

Slavery has'nt existed in my lifetime. We need to convince the Trumpists that segregation is not cool. True Americans have decided to stand together against The Communists of Russia... And thank God so has our CIA, FBI, and our Intelligence Dept...!!! Baby steps...

Ironically the "swamp" has been drained. Every single person involved with Trump has been arrested... Good thing. Right? Maybe after he is gone things will get back to semi normal... Grown ups truly have to get back in charge...

I think of Nixon as a man who was very astute in some ways, maybe not so much in others. He knew what was transpiring in the world at large. Even when he was given information as a former president, he could separate fact from fiction in a way that the other former presidents could not. I have also heard from various sources that he was a different person than what he projected to the media. He had a way of making people feel special as individuals. Maybe better one on one than as a public speaker. But yes, he was a very flawed person

Really. Filling your administration with the VERY SAME PEOPLE who crashed the world's economy ten years ago ... that's not draining the swamp, that's filling the swamp with creatures from the black lagoon!

Tricky Dick was pretty bad but LBJ was probley worse. James Monroe was the first to publicly oppose slavery and Abraham Lincoln was a liberal. That makes being called a liberal a compliment.

What is more amusing are people who think they have not drunk any kool aid and reiterate tired, old allegations without substance based on one's own bias and emotions towards a leader rather than his policies.

Scooping up Roger Stone was a good move. Lying is his specialty he even admits to it. He has been telling political lies since elementary school. He told his class mates to go home and tell their parents to vote for Kennedy or they'd be going to school on Saturdays.

It is our strong belief and conviction that the government exists to serve the people and any deviation from this public mantra contradicts this fundamental creed. Public good reflects the degree to which the quality of life of our people has been improved. Public expenditures that do not advance this public expectation are deemed to constitute leadership failure and wasteful use of public funds. Public benefits should accrue to the majority of the population and not just a select few.
